George Benson - This Masquerade [Backing Track] 

Leon Russel wrote this song. Fantastic version by George Benson. It makes me really relax......

From Russia with love!

Wao, super, excelente. I have use this track, for my sanity, during this quarantine.

George Benson é maravilhoso ele tem muito talento e sentimento é meu cantor preferido.

Sublimo mate! 😎

Great track. Excellent musicianship, I personally would have liked it a bit slower. Taken down 2 or 3, but still an excellent track.

Real nice 🎸🎹

I love this tempo, it suits me.

nice groovy track!

amazing !! youre very talented!!!

This is the best backing track. I would make it a little slower, though.

These changes were written in 1943 by Matt Dennis. The song 'Angel Eyes' appeared in the movie 'Jennifer.' Leon Russel pasted his melody and lyrics over the original, which IMHO was much hipper - more literate and refined. 'Masquerade' is a dumbed down version the original.

Are we really happy here With this lonely game we play? Looking for words to say Searching but not finding understanding anywhere We're lost in a masquerade Both afraid to say we're just too far away From being close together from the start We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way We're lost inside this lonely game we play Thoughts of leaving disappear Every time I see your eyes No matter how hard I try To understand the reasons that we carry on this way We're lost in a masquerade

Some very critical people here. Comes with the territory.

!!!!!!!!!!!

This must be from the studio extended version

where can i get the midifile of this track?? thank you

Hola! Quisiera conocer quienes son los músicos que grabaron este backing track.

I can't play the guitar solo to this because this version is not the entire song. Some of the most tasteful and complex soloing is done in the very beginning. 😞

bpm?

anyone know the key?

No chords?

Just Pop it in Garageband and slow it down...123

its fast ...the Groove is lost in the improv part for Scatting...the swing feel is jst not there..the piano is kinda too busy and rushing too much...Cheers!

amazing !! youre very talented!!!
